My little tikes chicken coop

[lotsachickens]

My grandsons were down for a couple days and we put up this little tikes house(a trash and treasure find). The chickens love it! We put a board from one window to the other and they perch on it. Dylan built some steps so they can go up to the window and in the coop.

Cute!

That is great. I had an idea to do that for my ducks as they do not need roosts...but I never could find a good deal on one to recycle.

Excellent!

That's really CUTE but how do you lock them up at night so nothing eats them?

That was my question, too, as that appears to be plastic netting? *Please* get some 1/2" welded hardware cloth for each of the windows and use washers and screws to attach it. Also, please put on locks that an 8 year-old couldn't open, as a raccoon could, then, too!!

I don't want you to lose them to a predator!
